A few minutes later, Magni Copperbeard was on the side of the road when he met several dwarven scouts who had returned from scouting the enemy.

"You say, the orc's stronghold is now ...... Odd with that?" asked Magni Copperbeard, frowning.

"Yes, Your Majesty, we observed the enemy camp on the hillside near the orc base camp, where there were few moving orcs, and some of the orcs were lying on the ground, our judgment was ...... Probably the corpse of an orc. A dwarven scout replied.

"Body, did you use that instrument to identify it?" asked Magni Copperbeard.

"Yes, Your Majesty. We confirmed it with a telescope. The scout patted a long cylindrical object hanging from his waist and said with certainty.

While Ironforge was under siege by the orcs, the dwarves were in constant contact with their centuries-old allies, the gnomes, which kept Ironforge from being completely isolated.

From the underground passages between their city of Nomorigen and Ironforge, the gnomes transported a large number of weapons and new equipment to help their allies resist the orc siege, including this novel gadget invented by the grand tinther McNeill Semaprag, an assistant to the master gnome craftsman Gerbin Mekatok.

Two crystal shards, plus a long cylinder, made it possible to see far away, and the dwarven scouts had been heavily armed with this inexpensive tool to observe the movements of the enemy from a distance.

"Could it be that the orcs have shifted their positions?" Magni Copperbeard felt that something was wrong, he had observed the orc army from the head of Ironforge Castle, and it was hard to imagine that the camp of these rude creatures could be quiet.

"Full speed ahead, if this group of guys is already heading towards Dammod, we'll catch up with them as quickly as possible and crush them in one fell swoop!" Magni Copperbeard gave the order to march, and the dwarven warriors marched at full speed towards the Gulf of Palatin, located by the sea, on the muddy ground beneath their feet.

In the northwest corner of the royal palace at Fort Riptide is King Solas's private prison, which was converted from an old royal prison.

Since the time of the Araço Empire, countless noble criminals have been imprisoned here, from royals who have committed unforgivable sins, to ministers suspected of treason or rebellion, who have spent their last moments here, water prisons, dungeons, guillotines, torture chambers, everything from water dungeons, dungeons, guillotines and torture chambers.

"Your Royal Highness, Prince of Arthas, please be careful, the staircase here is in disrepair and can easily be emptied. De Jong cautiously led the way, turning back to remind Artace.

"I see, Lord de Jong......" Arthas had a helpless expression on his face, he couldn't remember how many times he had answered De Jong's words, and from the time he descended to the underground stairs of this dungeon, the elder of King Soras's guard had reminded Arthas of I don't know how many times.

In fact, Frostmourn had always held his master firmly, and Arthas wasn't worried about slipping into the problem at all.

But De Jong couldn't do without worrying, and not long ago, the little prince of Lordaeron found him and offered to go to the dungeon to see the orc chief who had been imprisoned.

De Jong naturally refused verbally at first - although the orc had been strictly guarded, who knew if it would have any evil spells, and whether it would have the strength to resist, and even if it could not use spells, if it broke free and hurt His Royal Highness the little prince, he could not afford that responsibility.

But De Jong did not defeat the prince of the neighboring country in the end, and De Jong was also present at yesterday's military meeting, although he escorted His Royal Highness Prince Christopher out of the council chamber in the middle, but the few words of Prince Alsace at the beginning made De Jong impress this young child.

The Prince of Arthas said that His Majesty King Terenus had given him permission to interrogate the orc, and although De Jong was suspicious of this, he could not confirm that - not long before Arthas found him, His Majesty King Solas and King Terenus had left the palace to visit the wounded soldiers in the city's makeshift camp for wounded soldiers, accompanied by the chief chamberlain, Master Kurbanke.

Because Prince Garin accompanied His Majesty King Solas on a visit to the wounded soldiers, although His Royal Highness was unhappy that his father had forced him to stay, De Jong did not accompany His Majesty King Solas on his travels.

In the absence of Kurbanke, the chief chamberlain, De Jong almost became the head of the palace, but don't forget that there are still two noble princes in this palace, one is the grounded Christoph Torbairn, and the other is Arthas Mineshir in front of him.

De Jong did not dare to take the risk of stopping Arthas from interrogating the orc, because if this was really the order of His Majesty King Terenus, De Jong could not afford to delay the plane.

However, although he agreed to Arthas's trip to the dungeon, De Jong made his own request - he would accompany a team of palace guards throughout the process, and the process and details of the entire interrogation process must be decided by himself - he did not want the Alsatian prince to approach the orc out of curiosity, and then be twisted by the big green hands.

Walking through the torch-lit dungeon corridors, Alsace is greeted by numerous cells, some wooden and some iron, but they all have one thing in common - no prisoners live in them.

"Lord De Jong, isn't this dungeon usually used?" Arthas asked curiously—a dungeon that is not used very often, presumably the security cannot be guaranteed, what if the orc escapes?

"Well......" De Jong hesitated, a little dodging between his words, "It's not like that, His Royal Highness Prince Alsace, it's just ...... It is usually used to hold high-ranking political prisoners, who are usually executed quickly. ”

Although De Jong was a little vague, but almost two lives of people and Arthas still understood the meaning of the captain of the guard, I had heard before, King Solas of Riptide Castle was more short-tempered, and his political methods were always like thunder, and there was almost no word for tolerance in his political dictionary, presumably the political prisoners who were imprisoned here were quickly sent to the gallows or guillotine, and the good thing of committing treason like the Blackmore family and still being able to continue to serve as a lord in a remote area could only happen under the generous King Terenus。

"Your Royal Highness Prince Arthas, please come with me. Guarded by the palace guards, De Jong led Arthas to the deepest part of the dungeon, where three court guards sat around a square table, one guarding an iron prison.

"Lord De Jong!" The three sitting palace guards saw this large group of people coming, first stood up with a wary face on the hilt of the sword at their waists, and waited until they saw De Jong in the crowd clearly, then they let down their guard and saluted the chief of the guard.

However, Arthas noticed that the guards who had been guarding the prison did not leave their posts, but only nodded to De Jong from a distance, which surprised Arthas at the loyalty of the guards.

De Jong waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to be free; on weekdays, these palace guards are not a group of harmony, and the upper aristocratic circle is too close, and there will always be some mutual incrimination, only after this baptism of side by side bloody battle, the guards have formed a real love for their robes, and De Jong has become much more tolerant of these subordinates.

"Your Royal Highness, Prince Arthas, are you interrogated here, or are you in prison?" De Jong asked, turning back.

According to De Jong, Arthas naturally got as far away from the orc as possible, but he decided to ask Arthas what he thought first.

"Let's go inside, with De Jong here, I don't think anything unexpected will happen. Arthas smiled back?
